### **The space**



Step back in time with us in our historic 3 Bedroom home located just across

from the beautiful and haunted beaches of the Outer Banks. We are located

right across from the beach access, no houses in front just cross the street,

climb the dune and you are on the wide sandy beach.



This beautiful home is preserved in the same condition as it was built,

showing the fantastic wooden floors, walls and ceilings. The Master Carpenters

who built these homes constructed the entire interior (floors, walls and

ceiling) with the same wood including the kitchen cabinets. Rustic, to be

sure, but no worries about the sand that can follow you in and perfect for the

little ones, including your 4 legged family members!



This comfortable home has Two Queen Beds with Pillow Top Mattresses, 4 Twin

Beds and can comfortably sleep 8 (9 to 10 if some sleepers are little and can

sleep on the couches). We have one full bathroom with a combination tub and

shower.



We have high speed Wi-Fi and a 65" Smart TV to connect to your Netflix or

other Streaming Video Services. Central Heat/Air to make you comfortable

throughout the year.



We have a fully stocked kitchen for all you culinary needs.



Park right outside your front door and check yourself in and out with the

lockbox.



Even with a thorough modernization the property is a historical home that is

now over 70 years old. It has some eccentricities that reflect building

standards and designs from the turn of the last century that lends to its

charm as an older beach cottage. Our bathrooms are not as large as modern

built, but even so, we hope that you will love our older and charming home.

Blackbeard’s Retreat was clean, however could use an update. Awesome location, could benefit from an outdoor hose or shower, we needed to rinse off with the neighbor’s hose. It suited our needs for a couple days.

Good for a Long Weekend

Overall, it’s a great location, literally across the street from the beach, and it’s nice for a long weekend. The house itself is older and there’s no outdoor light to sit out on the porch, which was disappointing because it was hard to see out there at night. Secondly, there were lots of thorns from bushes on the rugs and dust when we arrived, which we took care of.

This was a great little spot to stay at. It’s one of those original beach houses. We had a little problem with AC but the host was more than willing to make our stay comfortable. He was even willing to give us an extra day for free because of the AC. We ended up getting fans and it cooled the house down. It was just so hot outside and the AC wasn’t keeping up with it. But you kind of expect it with an old beach house like that. The beach was right across from the house. It was perfect! My family and I enjoyed our stay! Definitely will do it again!

Thank you for staying with us and for sharing such a thoughtful review. We’re glad you enjoyed the charm of the original beach house and the easy beach access, and we really appreciate your understanding about the AC issue during the heat. We’re also happy we could help keep things comfortable, and we’ll keep working to make sure the home stays as enjoyable as possible. We’d love to welcome you and your family back again.
